I will need to be taking Rosie throught he pits soon - hopefully next week ! From people who have heard Rosie - do you think the dB is at a legal level?

Rob - Do you have spare stockies / legalz - we can finally do that swap you've been wanting to do !

Apparently aftermarket airflow and intercooler normally gets passed? A mate of mine was telling me when he went through it was fine.

Everything should be legal - I do have UV tinted glass with stickers indicating it is on the glass (Not in the glass) so this may cause an issue as it has been caused an issue for other people - I shall see !

Other then that, I think I am set !

On another note - Rosie could be fully paid off next Thursday which I can start putting money away for 250Killa-Wasps.

Time for everything to be completed with Rosie being ACT Rego'd with 250kW is estiamted at 4weeks. FINGER-ROOS crossed !

I'm running stretched tyres :( The guy said he would put new tyres on the car before I purchased it and when I agreed he put 275's on the back (And I quote "Beucase they look fully sick") which have overly stretched the tyre on the 17" rims.

What size are your rims? You can go up 2 sizes can't you?

Lip to guard distance is the governing factor (assuming you didn't widen the track of your car by a ridiculous amount). For example, TECHNICALLY, the standard R33 GT-R rims needed to be added to my engineer's certificate, even though they're only 17x9" +30 (or +35, can't recall).

Dude. I would honestly take it in with the rims on it. The car will fail for some reason anyway (because its dickson). Just see what they say.

Can only take it to Dickson - so Dickson it is :D

This is likely. It's probably too loud. Mine was 92db. Guessing more like 122db now. :laugh:

Regardless of Tyre Size, How Wide Are Your Rims Jeremy?

Can only take it to Dickson - so Dickson it is :D

I recently put my GTR over the pits with 17x10 and they said its fine if the track width is no more than 10mm out either side. What size and offset wheels have you got?

I can do some calculations if you would like :yes:

I will have to check :D

I'm going to go over the pits as is (already booked) so I got my list - I'd rather them fail me on simple things and get them all done up then spend 1.5hours looking for a fault to fail me on. I just know the rims are not going to pass so preparing.

What i mean is it will fail for something else. So borrow rims you know will pass when you take it in the second time. Just to save you time.

Haha it's either Red or White sorry guys

Not going black again because it always looks dirty and I'm over cleaning.

This is why I want to go red

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
